My last employer solved the problem (sort of). We were simply disconnected from access to the Internet. From then on employees were limited to only intranet access within the agency.

Not necessarily to prevent the downloading of mischief from the Internet, but to prevent the UPLOADING of some sensitive material, which was used in malicious ways against the interests of the agency I was with.

Life can be hard when the people with whom you work every day are not politically reliable.

Did they also cut your phone lines and remove the floppy/ cd burners and usb ports too? Why not remove the pens and paper while they were at it?
